Description
Hook your 4th through 6th Grade students by introducing them to an engaging unit all about Meter! Your students will have many opportunities to internalize, recognize and relate to the concept of Meter as an Element of Music, culminating in creating their own composition in a Meter of 2, 3, or 4. With the included lesson plans, presentations, visuals, games, and movement activities, you can feel confident in your ability to lead your students to experience and connect with time in music in an engaging and interactive way.
